Questions

How big is the TrackController PCB?

It measures 130 × 60 mm and has 2 copper layers, 1.6 mm thick.

What parts does the TrackController use?

24 parts, built around the TXS0108EPW. The full list of its parts is on this page, with links to each part's symbol and footprint where PCBKit's library has them.

Where can I download the TrackController KiCad files?

From the GerardHarkema/modelspoor repository on GitHub, at the commit this page was made from: the board is KiCad/TrackController/TrackController.kicad_pcb and its schematic KiCad/TrackController/TrackController.kicad_sch. PCBKit opens the board in the browser, with nothing to install.

Can I use the TrackController design in my own project?

Its repository states no licence, so its author keeps all rights: ask GerardHarkema before reusing the design.
